Cyber-Resilient Platforms Overview

MSR-TR-2017-40 |

This document is a high-level overview of The Cyber Resilient Platforms Program (CyReP) – a Microsoft-led industry initiative to improve the security and resiliency of computers, with particular emphasis on cloud-managed IoT devices. The CyReP Program includes hardware and protocol specifications, as well as open-source software that enables the security features.

One of the primary goals of CyReP is to enable a rich ecosystem of hardware and software components that can be used to build systems and devices that meet the requirements of NIST SP-800-193 (DRAFT) “Platform Firmware Resiliency Guidelines.”
